Family Movie Night

Curious George (2006)

Director: Matthew O'Callaghan

MPAA Rating: G

The man with the yellow hat works at a natural history museum that's fallen on hard times. The museum director's son wants to turn it into a parking lot, but Ted offers to bring back a mysterious statue from Africa that's guaranteed to pull in crowds. Unfortunately, the idol turns out to be three inches tall. But Ted accidentally brings back a lonely yet irrepressible monkey, soon dubbed George. They set off on a non-stop action, fun-filled journey through the wonders of the big city toward the warmth of true friendship.

Overall a good wholesome family movie that we have watched several times over the past few years. It has a couple of borderline questionable characters and off-screen actions, but nothing a younger child would pick up on. Good quality for some family entertainment.
